Default Transporting large wads of cash to tunica

How does one bring the bankroll necessary to play in a $4000-8000 game from vegas to tunica?

How much do these guys normally buy in for in this game? 20BB would be $160k, does that rule of thumb scale up to that level?

I can't imagine that anyone would fly with that amount of cash on their person, it seems like an open invitation for TSA to [censored] with you.

Bank of America has branches in both Las Vegas and Tunica, so a wire between branches could be done.

I would think the standard practice would be to arrange credit with the casino, and mail them a check.
Either draw down off a credit line, or deposit before hand.

As a memphis native, I can tell you that you wouldn't want to be in any of those locations with $500k on you.
